Okay, that is great, a mix of low and high fares, but which fares are actually getting you all or most of your upgrades, the low fares or the high fares? 5 out of 12 is 42% success, but if all of the failures are LUT fares, and the successes are all higher, then that would be a different story, and a much more meaningful story too, don't you think?
